I assume your family member is under the care of a psychiatrist? She might ask about Zyprexa, it's good for extreme anxiety/sleeplessness. I would think the remeron would take care of the insomnia, but she may need something more. Another thought: some of the anxiety might be from the Lexapro; SSRI's can do that. If that's the case, it should subside in a few weeks. Just make sure she is not alone, she may well be suicidal or at least frightened of being alone.
